Creating new car models for Codemasters games in the last years has been pretty unheard of, if not extinct. I really don't think that will happen again. Rockstar Games tried to prevent modders to create real car models for GTA 5, modders eventually cracked it but it took a good while. Shows that game developers probably don't want models in their games that are not licensed for it.
But for car liveries and skins, Codemasters even encourage the players to make. Should take a very short while until the first new liveries pops up.

Anybody got this yet? I'm going down to the store tomorrow to trade in WRC 6 (which I played for a grand total of about 15 minutes) for Dirt 4. Reviews this side of the pond have all been very positive.

Will be released tomorrow I think

from codies forums,that is what im afraid of......
It's definitely not as SIM as DR, much more forgiving all round imo.
eg. I just did todays daily challenge - a rallycross at Hells in the supercars. I had yet to race a supercar in Dirt4, I've just used the 1600s & superlites.
I knew the track very well from DR. In Dirt4 it is extremely forgiving. Hitting curbs & outside gravel didn't affect me at all :( The same mistakes made in DR would have given me a ton of trouble to combat through and retrieve.) The same can be said for (going wide on) rally stages.
The supercars also lack the violent punchiness & feedback of DR. (Although I'm still experimenting with the vibration & feedback settings.)
It's very dumbed down on SIM compared to DR which is a shame. I haven't attempted 'Gamer' settings, but with all the assists available in SIM (I race with everything off), I don't understand why this setting isn't as hardcore as DR. Doing full Michigan stages, in career, from start to finish in top gear isn't the most challenging.
I just keep telling myself it's Dirt4, not Dirt Rally 2.
Anyway on a positive note, all the team management additions are great, so no more stock piling cash with nothing to spend it on :)
PS. got the (day 1?) update. No changes to driving that I can feel.

@spyros, interesting, not in line with anything that I've heard from anyone else or my own (albeit brief and inebriated) experience during World RX weekend at Lydden

In a few hours, I will get my digital version and will find out. Can't wait...

Strange, I got the feeling Codemasters would use the same rally physics from Dirt Rally. Obviously not then and that's a shame. I never touch rallycross, but heard it was good enough in Dirt Rally so it feels strange they have changed it.
